AIM:To investigate the current status of astigmatism and its associated factors among children and adolescents from kindergarten through senior high school in Yangpu District, Shanghai, and to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and control of refractive errors.METHODS:A cluster sampling method was employed. From September to November 2024, students from 14 randomly selected schools in Yangpu District, Shanghai, were enrolled as study subjects. Autorefraction and ocular biometry were performed under non-cycloplegic conditions, and questionnaire surveys were administered. Comparisons of astigmatism degree, detection rate, and axis were made across age groups, educational stages, and sexes. Multiple linear and logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with astigmatism.RESULTS:A total of 7 233 students aged 4-18 y were enrolled including 3 731 males, 3 502 females, with the mean age 10.13±4.18 y, astigmatism -0.76±0.82 D, and the detection rate(≤-1.00 D)was 29.23%. Both the degree and detection rate of astigmatism were correlated with age and educational stage, peaking in senior high school, with the most pronounced changes observed during primary school. Besides age, astigmatic refractive power was influenced by spherical equivalent(β=0.105, P<0.001), mean keratometry(β=-0.118, P<0.001), sex(with boys as the reference, girls: β=0.054, P<0.001), frequent sustained near work for 30-40 min(with “almost never” as the reference, β=-0.030, P=0.038), preterm birth(β=-0.023, P=0.044), maternal myopia(β=-0.028, P=0.020), and homework completion time on rest days(β=-0.035, P=0.041). The detection rate of astigmatism was associated with maternal myopia(OR=1.130, P=0.039), male sex(OR=0.773, P<0.001), shorter sleep duration on school days(OR=0.909, P=0.028), shorter sleep duration on rest days(OR=0.937, P=0.046), preterm birth(OR=1.382, P=0.012), frequent excessive head lowering(OR=1.216, P=0.045), homework completion time on rest days(OR=1.043, P=0.046), higher spherical equivalent(OR=0.891, P<0.001), and higher mean keratometry(OR=1.188, P<0.001).CONCLUSION:The degree and detection rate of astigmatism among children and adolescents from kindergarten to senior high school in Yangpu District, Shanghai are correlated with educational stage, and primary school may represent a critical period for astigmatism prevention and control. Male sex, maternal myopia, preterm birth, high-intensity near work, and insufficient sleep and other factors may be associated with the onset and progression of astigmatism. It is recommended that education and health departments strengthen visual health screening during primary school, while promoting behavioral interventions such as scientific eye-use habits and adequate sleep across different educational stages to delay the onset and progression of astigmatism.

Objective:To construct an evaluation indicator system for power system of otolaryngology surgery,so as to provide references for the configuration of surgical power devices of medical institutions.Methods:Literature review and brainstorming were used to analyze existing literature related to surgical power.Combined with expert opinions and clinical demands,an evaluation indicator system was initially proposed.The Delphi method was adopted to determine the evaluation indicators of power system of otolaryngology surgery.The analytic hierarchy process(AHP)method was used to determine the evaluation indicator system of the power system of otolaryngology surgery,which were constructed by weight of each indicator.Results:The evaluation indicator system of power system of otolaryngology surgery included 5 first-level indicators(integrity of medical equipment,products'performance indicators,safety,clinical application effect,and after-sales service guarantee)and 49 second-level indicators under the first-level indicators.In the first-level indicators,equipment's safety had the highest weight(20.48%).In the second-level indicators,the top three of the combined weights were respectively integrity of equipment's main device(7.19%),accessory's integrity(7.03%),and identification's integrity(6.03%).Conclusion:The evaluation index system for otolaryngological surgical power systems clarifies the core dimensions,specific indicators and relative importance of the evaluation,and can be applied to the procurement and selection of surgical power devices in medical institutions,performance testing,clinical effect evaluation and other aspects.

Objective:To explore the accuracy of parameters of anterior segment measurement assessment system and optical biometer in predicting lens in implantable collamer lens(ICL)implantation.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the examination data of patients who underwent ICL surgery at the department of ophthalmology,Army Characteristic Medical Center from January 2020 to July 2024.The measured data of the chamber corner parameters,which included anterior chamber depth(ACD),central corneal thickness(CCT),white to white(WTW),flat keratometry(K1)and steep keratometry(K2),of 74 patients(134 eyes)who underwent simultaneous measurements of the IOLMaster 700 optical biometer and the Pentacam HR anterior segment measurement assessment system were selected.The expected spherical equivalent(EXP SPH),expected cylinder(EXP CYL),and expected spherical equivalent(EXP SEQ)were calculated,and the differences,correlations and consistencies of these data were analyzed.Results:There were significant differences in ACD,CCT,WTW,K1 and K2 between the IOLMaster 700 and Pentacam HR in measuring myopic patients(t=12.928,6.202,-37.877,-13.743,-12.007,P<0.001).All measured data showed high correlation(r=0.983,0.984,0.961,0.996,0.994,P<0.001).Bland-Altman consistency test showed that the measured values by 3%-6%were outside the limits of 95%consistency,and the differences among the EXP SPH of two instruments and the postoperative actually measured results of spherical lens(SPH),among the EXP CYL of two instruments and the postoperative actually measured results of cylinder lens(CYL),and among the EXP SEQ of two instruments and the postoperative actual measured results of spherical equivalent(SEQ)were statistically significant(x2=20.927,7.451,25.459,P<0.05).The average differences between Pentacam HR and IOLMaster 700 were respectively(0.024±0.491)D and(0.009±.491)D in predicting SPH,and were respectively(-0.05±0.476)D and(-0.049±0.475)D in predicting CYL,and were respectively(-0.001±0.458)D and(-0.016±0.461)D in predicting SEQ.Conclusion:During selection process of ICL surgery for lens,clinicians can reasonably choose Pentacam HR and IOLMaster 700 to calculate lens according to the actual requirements of the patients.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of high-altitude field-based teaching in acute mountain sickness.Methods:The medical students of the classes 2018 and 2019 majoring in clinical medicine were selected as subjects, and they were divided into conventional teaching group and field-based teaching group, with 20 students in each group. The students in the conventional teaching group received classroom teaching alone, and those in the field-based teaching group received high-altitude field-based teaching after theoretical lectures. The two groups were compared in terms of the theoretical knowledge of acute mountain sickness, the quality score of internship, and rescue operation score of acute mountain sickness, and questionnaire feedback and post-class discussion were performed among trainees and teachers to evaluate the high-altitude field-based teaching model. SPSS 19.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:Compared with the conventional teaching group, the field-based teaching group had significantly higher scores of the theoretical knowledge of acute mountain sickness (91.72±4.34 vs. 86.10±5.15, P<0.001), the quality score of internship (89.64±5.21 vs. 83.51±2.38, P<0.001), and the rescue operation of acute mountain sickness [94.05 (89.54, 94.87) vs. 87.01 (84.33, 90.82), P<0.001]. Conclusions:High-altitude field-based teaching can improve the teaching effect of acute mountain sickness and cultivate the interest and learning enthusiasm of students, and therefore, it holds promise for wide application.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of applying injectable cross-linked sodium hyaluronate isolation gel in radical hypofractionated radiation therapy for prostate cancer.Methods:In this prospective study, patients at Beijing Hospital who were pathologically diagnosed with clinical stage T 1-2N 0M 0 prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma by puncture and underwent radical radiation therapy were included. All patients received ultrasound-guided cross-linked sodium hyaluronate isolation gel injection and image-guided intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IG-IMRT). The prescription dose was moderately hypofractionated, with a prescription dose of 60 Gy in 20 fractions for 5 times a week, once daily, which was delivered to 95% of the planning target volume (PTV) of prostate and seminal vesicle. Analyze the prostate rectal spacing (PRS) at the baseline, on the day of injection, during the radiotherapy, 1 month and 3 months after radiotherapy, changes in rectal volume before and after injection, and incidence of rectum-related side effects. The changes in all indexes before and after injection were analyzed by using t-test. Results:A total of 13 patients were enrolled from March 2022 to February 2023. The isolation gel maintained morphologic stability without significant spatial changes during radiotherapy, and the mid-prostate had the best effect, with PRS up to 1 cm. At 3 months after radiotherapy, the isolation gel was seen to decreased in volume with a certain absorptive capacity. The irradiated volume of rectum was decreased significantly in all patients after gel injection, and the mean volumes of rectal V 60 Gy , V 50 Gy , V 30 Gy , and V 20 Gy before and after injection were 1.923% vs. 0.280%, 10.255% vs. 3.172%, 29.602% vs. 18.800%, and 49.452% vs. 40.259% (all P<0.005). The average values (range) of rectal V 60 Gy , V 50 Gy , V 30 Gy , V 20 Gy decreases were 84.9%( 29% - 100%), 69.6%(27%-100%), 36.3%(0%-75%), and 17.8%(0%-50%), respectively. No grade 3-4 side effects occurred in all patients, and there were no common grade 1-2 rectal side effects such as diarrhea, rectal bleeding, proctitis and anal pain, etc. Only one patient developed grade 1 constipation during radiotherapy. Conclusion:Injection of Chinese made cross-linked sodium hyaluronate isolation gel can significantly reduce the irradiated volume of rectum and the incidence of rectal toxicities in prostate cancer patients undergoing radical radiotherapy.
